Westmont approves 1.5 percent restaurant tax to help fund infrastructure improvements

By Jonathan Samples Staff Reporter

The cost of eating out in Westmont will be slightly higher following a vote by the Village Board to introduce a 1.5 percent restaurant tax as a way to overcome a budget deficit associated with the loss of home-rule status.

The board voted 5-1 in favor of the tax during its June 17 meeting. Trustee James Addington was the only board member who opposed the tax, citing the additional costs associated with its implementation.

“There are additional costs for businesses in addition to the 1.5 percent, if that’s where it ends up,”Addington said.

Addington also made a motion to decrease the tax to 0.75 percent, but it failed. Village staff estimated the 1.5 percent tax will bring in approximately $750,000 in additional revenue annually.

The trustees who voted in favor of the

“It’s a tough decision, but I

believe something has to be done.

My position is not against the restaurants in this community; it’s for roads and road repair.”

Bruce Barker, Westmont Trustee tax did so begrudgingly, saying the decision was not easy but necessary to balance a strained budget.

With the loss of home-rule status in November, the village lost revenue from a 0.5 percent sales tax and a 2 cent per-gallon gasoline tax. That loss of revenue amounted to approximately $2.4 million and prompted the village to find additional revenue sources.

Additionally, the need for infrastructure improvements was an important factor for several trustees.

“It’s a tough decision, but I believe something has to be done,”Trustee Bruce Barker said.“My position is not against the restaurants in this community; it’s for roads and road repair.”

Squad Car Night draws over 1,000 Village Board approves open liquor ordinance for Street Fair

By Jonathan Samples Staff Reporter

Over 1,000 residents came out to the Westmont Street Fair Thursday evening for the annual

Squad Car Night. That number will likely grow with the recent approval of an ordinance to allow open alcohol at the fair going forward.

“The squad cars and the

fire trucks really bring the people out,” said Westmont Police Department Sgt. Stephen Thompson, who attended the event with his family and friends.

There were more than 30 police and fire vehicles from across the Chicago area on display during the evening’s event, in addition to dozens of classic cars set up for the weekly Cruisin’ Nights.

Downers Grove amends membership goals in municipal lobbying group

By Jonathan Samples Staff Reporter

The Downers Grove Village Council voted to renew its membership in the DuPage Mayors and Managers Conference, but not before it passed an amendment to establish a set of guidelines for future membership considerations.

“It was intended to compel discussion about whether or not there seems to be effort and progress towards these kinds of things,” said Commissioner Bob Barnett, who proposed the amendment to the original ordinance.

The DMMC is a council of 33 municipal governments that provides research on public policy issues, lobbies the state on issues of importance to member municipalities and encourages intergovernmental cooperation among those municipalities.

Downers Grove Mayor Martin Tully currently serves as the vice

president of the organization.

The 5-2 vote in favor of authorizing $36,776 for membership dues in the DMMC came during Tuesday’s Village Council meeting after commissioners had previously discussed the issue in great detail during the June 11 meeting.

Barnett, who was not present for the June 11 meeting, had been opposed to DMMC membership in previous years. However, he felt his proposed amendment would help establish a set of expectations to help the village get the most value out of its membership in the organization.

Barnett’s amendment included six proposals that he hopes future councils will use to gage the value of DMMC membership, and whether or not the organization is meeting village expectations.They include: minimizing membership dues, while retaining high membership value; finding additional revenue sources other than membership dues; developing and improving

on communication between the DMMC and member communities; providing an annual state of the organization report; establishing a government consolidation and overhead reduction program group; and establishing an annual member survey to gather information about best practices.

Commissioner Geoff Neustadt was the only member of the council who opposed the amendment, saying he had submitted a list of his own expectations from DMMC membership to Tully and Village Manager Dave Fieldman.

“Commissioner Barnett’s amendment has good intentions to try and place specific outcomes on our membership in the organization,” Neustadt said. “Last week, we came up with some ideas of things to offer to Mayor Tully and Manager Fieldman to take forward to their executive positions at Mayors and Managers.

I’ve given my own considerations See LOBBY, page 4

RESTAURANT Continued from page 1 Barker said the 1.5 percent tax is the best option available to non-home rule communities to increase revenue because it is able to be passed on to the consumer.

Trustee Bob Scott agreed with Barker, saying the tax will be passed on to anyone who eats out in Westmont, not just residents.

“Is this something we want to put on the restaurants?

Absolutely not,” Scott said. “But if you have to do it, then you want to make sure you do it to the people who don’t live in your town. A lot of people come into this town and eat in the restaurants. Let them do this for us.”

The village hosted a public hearing on the new tax during its June 13 Committee of the Whole meeting, and restaurant owners were again invited to speak during Monday’s regular meeting.

Tracey Valerio, owner of DJ’s Sports Bar and Grill,

asked the board to consider alternative revenue sources that would spread the tax burden throughout the whole community. She felt the “places for eating tax” placed too much of the burden on restaurant owners.

“I think a fair thing to do is have everybody share in the cost,” Valerio said. “I would rather see us not have a ‘places for eating tax’ and doing vehicle stickers or property tax.”

Initially, the board had discussed a 1 percent tax on “places for eating” during the April budget process. That tax was estimated to generate approximately $500,000 in additional revenue. However, the tax was raised to 1.5 percent so the village would be in a position to take out a $10 million bond for infrastructure improvements.

Finance Director Spencer Parker said the additional 0.5 percent would bring in an additional $250,000 to be used toward the bond. The tax will go into effect Sept. 1. jsamples@buglenewspapers.com

LOBBY Continued from page 3 for that, so I won’t be in support of this amendment.”

Commissioner Becky Rheintgen,who did not oppose the amendment, and Neustadt were the only members of the council to vote against renewing DMMC membership all together.

Commissioner David Olsen, who was undecided whether he would vote to authorize the membership dues at the June 11 meeting, said the amendment to the original ordinance helped sway his vote.

“I’m in support of this item and more strongly in support given Commissioner Barnett’s amendment,” he said.

“I think it’s important that we, as a council, are engaged through both formal and informal channels with our pier municipalities within the county. I think the DMMC is one formal way in which we can effectively engage with those municipalities.”

He added the amendment provides a set of metrics the council can use to assess the effectiveness of the DMMC in helping the village with legislative advocacy and intergovernmental cooperation. jsamples@buglenewspapers.com

SQUAD CAR

Night is usually the biggest Crusin’ Nights event of the year, and this year’s event was especially large.

“This was one of the biggest squad car nights we’ve had in years,” he said. “We estimate that we had over 100 total vehicles,but even more impressive, probably over a thousand residents in attendance. It was great to see so many people walking up and down Cass Avenue in downtown Westmont.”

Dawn King organizes the event each year, and she was

honored Thursday with the firstever Public Safety Volunteer Appreciation Award.

“Dawn has been an unbelievable resource for Westmont over the years,” Westmont Police Chief Tom Mulhearn said. “She’s been absolutely wonderful and we thank her for all she’s done for so many years.”

Now in its third week, the Westmont Street Fair has grown in attendance every week since it began. During Monday evening’s Village Board meeting, trustees approved a liquor ordinance

for the event in the hopes of continuing that positive trend and benefiting restaurants in the area of the fair.

The ordinance would allow restaurants in the boundaries of the Westmont Street Fair to serve alcohol to patrons, who would be allowed to carry alcoholic beverages with them within the boundaries of the Westmont Street Fair. Liquor will begin being served at the event Thursday, June 27.

Horoscopes Don’t let weeds spoil your garden. Use a discriminating eye to maintain a high level of quality, as substandard materials or cutting corners could ruin your whole project this week. Good times don’t cost anything.

Concentrate on the here and now. You may yearn for a better future, but it is a poor time for plotting a course. Your insights may be slightly off the mark this week, so be a careful observer before taking action.

Accentuate the positive. Be honest with yourself; admit your shortcomings and focus all your energies on tasks you can perform well. There is little to be gained from confrontations this week.

Stay on course. No matter what advice people give you about how to rectify a situation, your best bet is to stick with the original plan. Ground rules are likely to undergo an abrupt change this week.

Let it go. What has worked for you in the past may not be quite as effective in the week to come. It may be time for you to adopt a new approach and attack problems from a more educated perspective.

Don’t let sluggishness curtail your progress this week.

Once you’ve chosen a course, go full speed ahead or else you may be stuck in neutral. Don’t let misunderstandings fester; clear the air as soon as possible.

The tiniest thorn can be the most painful this week. Ease the burden by eliminating the source of your problem before it causes more stress. Be flexible with your plans as priorities are likely to change rapidly.

Nothing lasts forever.

You may be perfectly content to keep things the way they are, but you must adapt to an ever-changing world to keep pace. In the week ahead, don’t let nostalgia prevent you from moving forward.

Get the word from the wise. Take responsibility for your own actions, but allow yourself to be guided by someone whose credentials are impeccable. This week, forgiveness helps the forgetting.

Sometimes, the best course of action is to take no action at all. Signals might be garbled, but misunderstandings can be straightened out with a sincere fence-mending session. Don’t shake the tree this week.

Get a grip. Making decisions without adequate and accurate information is a recipe for disaster this week. Take time to check the facts or ask an expert before making a choice. Patch up a quarrel with an apology.

Take it as it comes this week. Meet challenges as they arise; don’t waste time worrying if pitfalls may lie around the next corner. Anticipating problems before they exist is a problem in itself.

DGS alums contributing to Hounds’ success

By Mike Sandrolini Sports Reporter

Having twin brothers Tim and Brendan Delany playing for him on the DuPage County Hounds baseball team this summer certainly is keeping Hounds head coach Sean Osborne on his toes.

The Hounds, who compete in the Midwest League—a wood bat league featuring NCAA and NAIA players from across the country— are three weeks into their 2013 season. And Osborne admits he’s still having a tough time telling them apart.

“I had a travel team a couple of years ago, and had twins on it,” said Osborne, who played high school ball at Providence.

“It took me about a week to tell them apart, and I got it down.

“I still have trouble with Brendan and Tim, and I’ve known them for two years.I know they’re going to pull the old switcheroo on me one time, and Tim’s going to pitch and Brendan’s going to play the outfield, and I’m not going to know the difference.”

For the record, Brendan pitches for the Hounds, and Tim is an outfielder. The Downers South graduates attend Ashford University, an NAIA school in Clinton, Iowa, and are on the baseball team, which means the Ashford coach also had to make sure he could tell who’s who. Or else …

“I was trying to convince my coach to let me go hit for my brother when he was pitching, and nobody would have known,” said Tim with a grin.

Once Ashford’s season started, however,Tim and Brendan didn’t get an opportunity to pull off a switcheroo of any kind.

Tim was declared ineligible by the NAIA. The NAIA ruled that the men’s baseball league in Berwyn he played in last summer

contained more than 25 percent college players,Tim explained.

But that wasn’t the case, Tim said.Ashford appealed the ruling, yet the appeal process took the entire season to resolve.

“I was told I was able to play right before our California trip (in March), and then the day before we were leaving on the plane, I was told I couldn’t play,” Tim said.

A week after Ashford’s season ended, the NAIA declared Tim eligible to play. Had he been able to suit up, Tim said he would have been leading off and playing center field for Ashford this season.

“It was very frustrating,” he said.

But Tim, who has one year of college eligibility remaining, is moving forward. He’s played in 13 of the Hounds’ first 14 games and is hitting .257.

“He’s had a little bit of a slow start,” Osborne said,“but the past couple of games, he’s been really hitting the ball hard and looks very promising.”

Case in point:Tim went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Saturday’s 8-4 loss to Southland.

Brendan, in his second summer with the Hounds, posted a 3-3 record and a 7.03 ERA during the spring at Ashford. He’s firmly entrenched in the Hounds’ starting rotation and has been lights out through Saturday.

Thus far, Brendan is 2-0 and sports a stingy 0.49 ERA. Last week versus the Rockford Foresters, he pitched 7 2/3 innings of four-hit, shutout baseball, while striking out seven as the Hounds won, 1-0.

“We picked him up halfway through the season (last year), and he was a big pickup for us,” Osborne said.

Plainfield Central’s Nagle a jack of all trades

By Scott Taylor Sports Editor

Last year Plainfield Central’s Morgan Vogt was named the Voyager Media Softball Player of the Year after her hitting and pitching led the Wildcats to a sectional title.

Her stats - .411 batting average, 38 runs, 28 RBI and a 10-2 record on the mound with a 1.48 were impressive.

Coming into this year, Central senior Kaleigh Nagle knew she had to be a similar player on the mound and at the plate in order for the Wildcats to be successful.

All Nagle did this year was bat .451 with District 202 records for hits (60) and triples (9) in a season, while also contributing 12 doubles, seven homers, 32 RBI and 40 runs scored, just at the plate.

In the circle she went 25-4 with a 1.41 ERA and her 49

career wins tied a district record.

She was able to do all that while leading the Wildcats to the sectional final and a Southwest Prairie Conference championship.

For her efforts she is the 2013 Voyager Media Softball Player of the Year.

“It’s definitely an honor,” Nagle said.“I worked hard to get to that point. It’s a good feeling. From the beginning of the season I came out really strong and had a good start. You lose a lot of leaders from last year’s team and you have to start leading.”

“Our team goes as Kaleigh Nagle goes,” Central coach Anne Campbell said. “She is the leader of our team. She leads the team in average, RBI, homers, triples,

etc. She is our defensive leader and fields the pitching position like no one else.The fact that she does not pitch at all except from Feb. 25th till we are done says a lot about her athleticism. To win 24 games pitching three months is incredible. She plays the game instinctively both offensively and defensively. It has been fun to watch her for the past three seasons.”

Nagle was most proud of her pitching after going nearly a year without stepping in the circle.

“I wasn’t expecting to do that well since I hadn’t pitched in almost a year,” she said. “I was most proud of that.”

Pitching wasn’t the only thing that changed for her this year.

She also led off for the first time in her high school career.

Coach Campbell had me and Kristina (Shahan) fill out a lineup card at the start of the year and both of us put me in the third spot,” Nagle said. “Coach wanted me to lead off because she wanted me to have the most at-bats. It wasn’t that different, you’re just the first person to see their pitcher and you have to let

your teammates know what you see.”

Nagle will go down in program history as not only one of the most successful individual players, but team players.

“It’s not often Plainfield Central wins back-to-back regional titles and advances to the sectional final both years,” Nagle said. “It was a great accomplishment for us, even though we were hoping to go farther this year.”

Nagle will be headed to the University of Illinois-Chicago next year.

The rest of the members on the Voyager Media All-Area team are:

STEPHANIE ABELLO A sophomore from Benet, Abello batted .550 with nine doubles and 12 homers, while driving in 51 RBI. “She is a powerful hitter who hits for average, with a slugging

percentage over 1.100,” Benet coach Jerry Schilf said. “Nothing she does surprises me, she works so hard and loves to hit.Her hands are so quick and she swings so hard she can hit the ball out of any park off of any pitcher. Only a sophomore it is scary to think how good she will be as she gets older. Will end her career as one of the best hitters in the history of Benet Academy.”

JESSICA ANDREE Andree moved down in the order for Downers South coach Ron Havelka’s squad this season—she led off for the Mustangs in 2012—and topped the team in both home runs (six) and RBIs (34). Andree batted .449 and also led the team in hits and doubles.

“You can almost put her anywhere you want in the See ALL-AREA, page 13

Sports ALL-AREA Continued from page 12 order,” Havelka said. “She really understands the game. She’s a very intelligent young lady and knows what has to be done. She has a lot of softball sense. She’s aware of situations in games that sometimes kids her age are not.

Batting-wise she has a great eye, puts ball in play for the most part. She has come up huge in situations for us.”

JENNIFER AMES She batted .402 with seven doubles, seven home runs and 28 RBI for Joliet West.

ASHLEY BECK Sophomore batted .470 with 24 hits, six doubles, two home runs and 16 RBI.

EMILY BERNATH The versatile Bernath, a junior from Resurrection, played six positions last season as a sophomore for the Bandits. Coach

Tom Stein started her at shortstop at the beginning of this year, but eventually moved her back to the outfield, where she excelled.

Bernath tied for the team lead in home runs (five) and had 30 RBIs while hitting .479.

Christie finished 9-14 on a 1619 Maine South squad during 2013, but her won-loss record is deceiving.The junior emerged as one of the top strikeout pitchers in the Chicago area, whiffing a school-record 207 in 144 innings and besting the old school mark by 51.

and hit .407 while playing what coach H a v e l k a described as a “really outstanding center field.”

Daly threw three opposing baserunners out at the plate during the postseason.

“She’s got great range out there,” Havelka said.“She gets a great jump on the ball and really worked on this and improved on it. She’s very fast and covers a lot of territory.

She solidifies our outfield and has come up with some big hits, too.”

ADRI CURA

CARLY DUNDEE

Junior from Plainfield South got off to a red-hot start to the season. She finished with a .391 average with six doubles, five homers and 28 RBI.

Senior batted .419 for Lockport with six home runs, 20 RBI and 41 runs scored from the leadoff spot in the order. In the circle, she was 10-5 with one save a 2.70 ERA and a 1.32 WHIP. She will attend the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.

JENNA CHRISTIE

CAITLYN DALY Daly’s power numbers were right up there with her teammate Downers South teammate,Jessica Andree. The junior cracked five homers, drove in 30 runs

EMILY EICHHOLZER Eichholzer batted .427 for Joliet Central with 34 RBI, four

The Plainfield South sophomore batted .429 with six homers and 25 RBI. She also went 18-7 on the mound with 135 strikeouts and a 2.38 ERA.

pitched with the poise of an experienced varsity player during the Mustangs’ march to the Rosemont Supersectional.

The lefty out-dueled Downers North standout Elaine Heflin during a thrilling 3-2 victory for the sectional title.After starting out 4-6, she turned her season around and finished with a 15-8 record, which included 23 complete games and a 2.90 ERA. Hitting-wise, she had a .368 average and 25 RBI. “She’s a very confident and very intelligent young lady,” Havelka said. “I think she’s got a great future ahead of her. I think she has unlimited potential. She keeps the ball down, and when she’s on, we’re getting outs on grounders and that helps us a lot.

She throws a fastball that almost has a cutter feel to it. When she’s on she’s very effective with that.”

CAROLINE

ELAINE HEFLIN

ROSA GONZALEZ Gonzalez batted .559 with two home runs, four triples, six doubles and 18 RBI.

COURTNEY GRASZ The Resurrection junior recovered from an off-season shoulder injury and made the allGCAC team for the second straight season. She hit a robust .495 with 21 doubles—leading the team in both categories—and batted in 32 runs while hitting third in the lineup. Grasz also played a near flawless third base, registering a .956 fielding percentage.

ALL-AREA Continued from page 13 stepped up when fellow pitcher Dale Ryndak went down with an injury. She went 17-5 with 267 strikeouts and a 0.96 ERA. “(She is) one of the best pitchers in the state,” Downers North coach Mark Magro said.

“She has great stuff (Fastball, riseball, curve, and developed a nasty change up this year).All her success never went to her head.

She’s humble and confident, not cocky. A great team leader who led by example and never got down on herself or teammates when they made errors or didn’t score runs for her. She will be missed. UIC is getting the real deal.”

JACKIE LILEK Senior hit .337 with 33 hits and 25 RBI for Minooka. One

of two pitchers for the Indians went 13-3 with 79 strikeouts with a 2.50 ERA. Will play next season at North Dakota.

MEGAN LOTARSKI She posted a Bolingbrook school record 138 strikeouts on the season with only 27 walks.

Lotarski posted a 1.64 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP and a 9-8 record.

NINA MAGGIO Maggio led Plainfield East with a .405 batting average.

She also had 11 doubles, four homers and 16 RBI from the leadoff position.

MAEVE MCGUIRE The 2012 NFCA First Team AllAmerican in 2012 had an equally impressive year this year.

She batted .516 with nine doubles, nine homers and 51 RBI for Benet.

“Maeve is known for her

Sports hitting and is one of the most feared hitters in the state, (she has been walked 25 times and HBP 5 times in 29 games, averaging 1 per game),” Schilf said.“She has exclusively played outfield for us her first three seasons.

“However, when our first basemen was moved to the pitching mound due to a season ending injury Maeve was moved to first and play flawlessly, when our catcher went down with an injury, Maeve stepped up to player catcher, a position she had not played in seven years.

You would never know it by watching her catch, she brings a gun to the position and is 8-for-8 in throwing out would be base stealers.”

CAROLYN NOJIRI Downers North senior had a .519 b a t t i n g average with 14 RBI, three homers, 33 runs scored and nine doubles.

“She is a great leadoff hitter who can do it all,” Magro said. “She works the count, is extremely fast and hit for power, average, can bunt to get on and slap. Best of all, she is a smart player (who) knows the game.

She is an outstanding defensive player who made only one error all year. She went 12-for12 in a stretch this year. She is a captain and great leader. She will be playing both softball and volleyball at Lewis University.

SARA NOVAK University of Wisconsinbound shortstop and pitcher for Minooka batted .428 with four doubles, seven home runs, 47 hits, 27 RBI and 30 runs scored.

As a pitcher, she was 8-4, with a 3.77 ERA and 133 strikeouts.

MARISSA PANKO Panko, who has verbally committed to Northwestern, batted .523 with 11 doubles, three triples, five homers and 29 RBI. “She moved to the leadoff spot this year, and causes all kinds of problems for defenses,” Schilf

stated. “She can bunt, slap, hit for average and hit for power.

She is the best defensive player in the area, not just best shortstop. She makes difficult plays look routine. She can go deep in the hole and throw out the fastest of runners.”

MICHAELA SCHLATTMANN Schlattmann drove home 29 runs on the year, while batting .385 with seven doubles and three homers.

KRISTINA SHAHAN Senior from Plainfield Central batted .411 with eight doubles and 22 RBI.

KRISTEN SKALA Skala, a Westmont sophomore, gave foes fits all season, whether See ALL-AREA, page 15

Sports ALL-AREA Continued from page 14 it was toeing the pitching rubber or digging into the batter’s box. The twotime all-I-8 selection hit .437 with nine triples, three homers and a team-high 24 RBI. On the hill, Skala fanned 178 in 128 innings, had a 1.96 ERA and an 11-9 record.

“She made some big strides on how to pitch to a batter and her approach to each batter,” Westmont coach Jason Bolden said. “I saw her really, really focused on how to attack a batter; with kids that’s difficult to teach. I’m really looking forward to her being a dominant force next year.”

KELSEY SMITH Minooka catcher batted .437 with 38 hits, six doubles and 15 RBI for the state champions. Will play next season at the University of Illinois-Chicago.

SUMMER STITT The junior, who’s started for Lisle since her freshman year—she was the leadoff hitter on the 2011 Class 2A

HOUNDS Continued from page 11 another DGS product who’s been a centerpiece in Osborne’s lineup last summer and again this season. White, the club’s leadoff hitter, ended 2012 with the fourth-best average in the Midwest Collegiate League at .357. So far this season, he’s batting .275.

“Personally, things are going well,” said White, who played in 23 games with 11 starts at Western Illinois this past spring and has one more season left.“I’m just coming in and trying to make contact. We’ve got a good, solid team. We came back stronger

fourth-place state team—took the mound this season for the first time since the eighth grade and pitched admirably. She posted an 11-9 record, with a 2.17 ERA and 124 strikeouts.

“We talked to her about making sure she kept us in games, and she did that,” Lisle coach Jen Pomatto said.

When she wasn’t pitching, the All-I-8 player hit .429 with a .526 on-base percentage and struck out only seven times in 94 plate appearances.

“One of the things we talked to her about was that she wasn’t going to get as many pitches as she’d like,” Pomatto said.

“As a third-year varsity player they’d (opponents) rather have somebody else beat her. That took some getting used to, but she did a nice job.”

JOY TREASURE She hit .402 with nine doubles and 28 RBI for Joliet West. In the circle, Treasure was 10-3 with a 3.13 ERA and 61 strikeouts.

GABBY VOULGARIS Hit .346 for the Porters with 21 of her 40 hits being for extra bases. She posted 15 doubles, two triples and four home runs and drove in 39 RBI. “Gabby is the top RBI getter on the team,” Chovanec said.

“Her strength and power at the plate has helped us continue to put runs on the board and leads the team in most doubles.”

Mark Gregory and Mike Sandrolini also contributed

than last year, so I think winning the championship is definitely a goal for this team right now.”

The Hounds currently sit in second place in the sixteam league, which concludes its regular season in late July.

They play their home games at Benedictine University.

“Playing here at Benedictine, I think it’s the best stadium in the league,” White said. “We always have a great turnout, and the coaches on the Hounds are wonderful. They teach us everything. They want us to show up every day with our own motivation, but they’re here to work with us. They want us to do better, and they’re always trying to help us out.” mike@buglenewspapers.com

Pastrana, Smith serve ice cream in Chicago On June 17, NASCAR Nationwide Series drivers Travis Pastrana and Regan Smith made stops around the city of Chicago passing out ice cream in anticipation of Chicagoland Speedway’s Rally, Rock & Race this July 19-21.

For a suggested $1 donation, Pastrana and Smith each pedaled their featured item, a bomb pop for Pastrana and an ice cream sandwich for Smith, with Smith narrowly outselling Pastrana by $2 after over 500 pieces of ice cream were handed out.

The two drivers raised over $600 throughout the day, with Chicagoland Speedway’s R.A.C.E. Foundation, a donor advised fund of the NASCAR Foundation, making an additional donation to bring the total charitable

contribution to $2,000.

The friendly competition all benefitted the Charlie Dean Leffler Charity Fund, established in the wake of NASCAR driver Jason Leffler’s death last week.

This trust will serve as the official fund for Jason’s five-year-old son, Charlie, and provide for his future needs.

“This was my first trip to downtown Chicago and we had a great time out here while raising money for a cause near and dear to our hearts,” said Regan Smith, the current points leader in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. “I want to thank everyone who came out today to help us raise money. We will see you this July at Chicagoland Speedway.”

Rock & Race ice cream truck to stops at 190 N State Street, Millennium Park and Pioneer Court off the Magnificent Mile with the final destination at Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, Bub City.

“I’ve spent a lot of time in Chicago over the years and it’s always one of my favorite places to be,” said Pastrana, who is in his first full season in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. “Regan edged me out there at the end today,

although I still think he might have taken some liberties with self-funding. We enjoyed getting to meet everyone and we’re excited to be back here two more times this season.”

Pastrana, an 11-time X-Games gold medalist, and Smith, coming off a win this past weekend at Michigan International Speedway, participated in a question-andanswer session with fans at Bub City to end the day. The Rally, Rock & Race weekenwill

be headlined by the STP 300 NASCAR Nationwide Series race on Sunday, a rare off weekend for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.

Following the STP 300, the future stars of NASCAR will take to the 1.5-mile oval in the Ansell ActivArmr® 150 ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards.The weekend also features two nights of the Traxxas TORC Series, complete with Baja-style off-road racing at Route 66 Raceway’s dirt oval.

WEEKLY RACING UPDATE STANDINGS

TRUEX JR. BREAKS THROUGH For Martin Truex Jr., a welcome oasis called Sonoma Raceway at long last ended one of the longest droughts in NASCAR racing.

With a convincing victory in Sunday’s Toyota Save Mart 350, Truex ended a winless streak of 218 races dating to June 4, 2007 at Dover, where he finished 7,355 seconds ahead of runner-up Ryan Newman.

On Sunday at Sonoma, Truex beat secondplace Jeff Gordon by and even bigger margin—8.133 seconds—as Juan Pablo Montoya dropped from the second position after running out of fuel on the next-to-last lap.

Truex set a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series record for the largest number of races between a driver’s first and second victories.

Carl Edwards ran third, followed by Kurt Busch, who rallied from consecutive pit road speeding penalties to score his fourth top five of the season. Clint Bowyer, last year’s winner, came home fifth, followed Kasey Kahne and Marcos Ambrose.

Greg Biffle, series leader Jimmie Johnson and Kevin Harvick completed the top 10.

Montoya, who was running second with two laps left, fell to 34th at the finish after running out of fuel.

Business & Real Estate

Smart to combine mortgage, credit line?

Dear Dave, My son has a $115,000 mortgage at 5.8 percent. He also has a home equity line of credit of $40,000 at 9 percent. Currently, he can get a 30-year loan at 3.5 percent, or a 15-year note at 2.75 percent. His takehome pay is between $70,000 and $80,000 a year, and these are his only debts. Should he combine the mortgages into one loan?

Daniel Dear Daniel, First, I only recommend mortgages of 15 years or less. Now we’re looking at a 2.75 percent loan versus a 5.8 percent loan versus a 9 percent loan. I advise people to put home equity loans under Baby Step 2 of my plan, which is pay off all debt except for the house, provided that the loan is less than half of your annual income. Based on the income figures you gave, this situation is kind of on the bubble.

If I were in your son’s shoes, I’d probably combine the two loans and refinance.

I’d go for a new $155,000 fixed-rate mortgage at 2.75 percent, with no balloons

and no calls. This kid can live a good life and get the mortgage paid off pretty quickly with the kind of money he’s making.

But if it’s me, I’m getting as short a term as possible on a refinance—maybe even a 10-year note instead of 15 years. Just imagine him getting all this knocked out and still having the majority of his life ahead of him. That’s financial peace!

—Dave

Retirement blend Dear Dave, My husband and I are debtfree. Recently I learned that I have a blended fund for retirement. Do you think I should switch to self-chosen funds? I have $26,000 invested at the moment.

Marina Dear Marina, My advice is to move your money into self-chosen funds.

The problem with blended funds is not that they are blended, but that they’ll move it around based on your age and where they perceive you to be in life. You won’t

even realize it’s happening.

I want you to be a lot more intentional with your money and know what’s happening every step of the way.

With self-chosen funds you can look at them and say, “Those are my funds.” Then, if down the road you decide one isn’t doing as well as you like, you can move the money to a different fund. With blended funds it’s almost like having a babysitter for your money.

You’re not the one watching the kids, and to me that’s a big mistake.

There shouldn’t be a lot of fees inside your 401(k) when it comes to trading funds. There’s a good chance there won’t be any fees at all, especially if you stay within the same company. Check into it, Marina, and talk to your human resources people.They can give you all the details.

Helping coworkers choose diversity Q. I work with somebody who is a strict vegan. Not a problem except that when we have a party, go out to lunch with customers, or eat in the break room, she gives us judgmental looks and comments about meat. I don’t mind her making a choice for herself, but the disapproving glares and remarks are super annoying. How can I get her to stop?

A. You can get her to stop by supporting her in becoming aware it is not her choice regarding food but rather her judgmental attitude that is the problem. No one in any workplace wants to be constantly exposed to criticism because they don’t agree with a coworker.

Obviously there are behaviors in the workplace that affect others adversely. If I chose to smoke within an office, my second-hand smoke will harm my others. If I chose to blast my brand of music, my coworkers are forced to listen. However, my religion, the food I choose to eat and my sexual orientation are things that coworkers should normally are not affected by.

If I’m sexually harassing a same gender coworker, yes, I’m harming my coworker. If I insist on not participating in reasonable office duties because of my religion, there could be problems.

But, again, normally these personal choices don’t affect an office.

When you have a coworker who uses topics like religion, food or even politics to create problems at work, it isn’t about the topic. Many people who are judgmental in their personal life are just itching for something to fight about. God, politics and food will do just fine as soap boxes.

So even if one of the world’s great religions had a teacher who said,“Love each other as I have loved you,” your religious coworker may use this topic to judge, not love, you.And even if your vegan coworker believes you should be kind to animals, she may be cruel to you. I know this is a behavioral paradox, but it is common among judgmental people.

Approach your coworker privately and let her know you

respect her ethical decisions about food. Let her know that your health and choices on what to eat are different.Tell her that you (and probably your customers) are feeling increasingly uncomfortable sharing meals.

Ask her if she would like to continue to participate in meal events. If she wants to be invited, then request she use these opportunities to build social relationships rather than educate those who make different nutritional choices.

I had a client with a judgmental vegan coworker.

When my client was pregnant, she used this approach quite successfully. She simply told her vegan coworker that her doctor had insisted she put the health of baby first.The vegan never made a critical remark again.

Remember when you run into someone with a judgmental soap box at work: it is not about the topic.You are simply dealing with a person who has found a good reason to express why he or she is superior. Coworkers who have this bad habit are mostly highly insecure and figure a good defense is to be offensive.

If you can point out the fallout of their behavior and give them better choices without attacking their self-esteem, they may listen.

The richness of our workplaces requires diversity.And, diversity can’t thrive without a tolerance of our differences.

The last word(s) Q. I hate receiving snippy emails. Is there an easy to put people who write rude emails in their place?

A. Yes, pause before attacking and explore whether what you heard was what they meant.

There is always time to counterattack if you are right.

A summer treat for which we all

scream

W

e’re just a couple of weeks into summer.

The weather has warmed up. My sons have finished their school year-one of them even just graduated from high school! And soon we’ll be getting away for some vacation time.

We all dream about summer vacation. But there has always been one treat that, ever since I was a young boy myself growing up in Austria, made me feel like I was on vacation whenever and wherever I ate it: ice cream.

One lick, and I felt like I was miles away from my everyday world, enjoying the good life.

Like so many foods, I think ice cream often tastes the best when you make it yourself.

Sure, there are great brands of premium frozen desserts, with all kinds of flavors and special additions mixed in. Read the labels on some of those products, though, and you might be surprised at what ingredients go into what we think of as one of the purest and most basic comfort foods.

When you make your own ice cream, there’s no doubt about what you’re eating. Classic versions are based on just a few simple ingredients: cream, of course; milk, because ice creams made with cream alone would be just too rich; egg yolks, which thicken the base mixture of what used to be called “frozen custard,” adding distinctive flavor and subtle golden color; some sort of sweetener; and flavors or

mix-ins of choice.

As for the flavor, I often choose chocolate, one of my all-time favorite sweets in any form.And I’ll make my ice cream good and chocolaty-in fact, I use so much in my Milk Chocolate Malt Ice Cream that I don’t even include any extra sugar to sweeten the mixture. But I do add something that gives the ice cream an extra dimension of flavor-malt powder, usually

made from a combination of wheat and malted barley, which contributes a wonderfully full, toasty flavor that complements that of the chocolate and makes many people who taste the results think of the old corner soda fountains or malt shops of their childhoods.

It’s the feeling of returning to childhood, I think, that makes ice cream so appealing to just about everybody.

Whether you enjoy this recipe on its own in a bowl or cone; sandwiched between two big cookies; drizzled with chocolate sauce or topped with a dollop of whipped cream; or elaborated with toasted nuts or candy sprinkles or anything else you might care to add, it will help make you feel like the pleasures of a long, happy summer are stretching out in front of you.

MILK CHOCOLATE MALT ICE CREAM Makes about 1-1/2 quarts 2 cups milk 2 cups heavy cream 8 large cage-free egg yolks 10 ounces organic milk chocolate, broken or cut into small chunks, or milk chocolate chips 1/2 cup malt powder, such as Horlick’s brand In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the milk and cream. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, put the egg yolks in a large stainless-steel mixing bowl. With a

wire whisk, beat the egg yolks just until smooth.

When the milk reaches a boil, remove it from the heat. While whisking the yolks continuously, slowly and carefully drizzle in the hot milk.

When all the milk has been incorporated into the yolks, pour the mixture into the saucepan. Place the pan over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon and taking care to scrape the bottom and sides of the pan, until the mixture has thickened enough to coat the back of the spoon, 7 to 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, bring about 2 inches of water to a boil in the bottom pan of a double boiler or in a small saucepan.

Reduce the heat to maintain a bare simmer. Put the chocolate in the top half of the double boiler or in a small stainless-steel bowl resting on the rim of the pan without its bottom touching the water. When the chocolate has melted, whisk it into the hot milk mixture.

With a ladle, transfer 1 cup of the hot milk mixture to a small bowl. Add the malt powder and stir until it has dissolved completely, then pour back

into the saucepan and stir thoroughly.

Pour the mixture through a finemeshed strainer into a clean, large mixing bowl. Set the bowl inside another bowl half-filled with ice cubes and water. Stir occasionally until the mixture has cooled.

Transfer the mixture to an icecream maker and freeze, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Serve immediately. Or transfer to a covered container and store in the freezer, transferring the ice cream to the refrigerator about 15 minutes before serving to soften it for scooping.
